The Most Dangerous Word In The English Language - That Went Unaddressed Got Us In This Mess With DJT.....

"unprecedented"!!!

How many times has this word been used in referenced to DJT and how many times has it been ignored.

We just went along with all the 'unprecedented' antics and lies of his. We just rolled with the punches and let him steam roll us into the monster he's become.

We really only have ourselves to blame for him. We didn't check him when we had the opportunity and we just let him take advantage of these continued unprecedented situations he got us into or gets us into with his lying.

So here we are today. Now we 'unprecedentally' let him murder people; take over countries; depose foreign leaders, etc. We just let him run roughshod over us and all we can do is point out that he's doing all this in and unprecedented way.

That word cropped up early in his first term and we just let it get away from us.

Now what do we do?

If elected Republicans felt their constituents were a greater threat to their power than Trump is, then they would defy him.

But they don't. Because of FOX News. Because of Citizens United. Because of the unprecedented avenues of propaganda and misinformation. Because of tribalism and cult-like behavior.

Because the cards are now stacked against the electorate as they never have been before.

When these become reasons for breaking or bending the rules, then inevitably more and more situations start to become "unprecedented", an "emergency" or "exceptional" situations.
